I managed to make some time available to upload this to my server for people who cant download from filefactory.
http://icxperia.com/jonny/RUU/HTC Ville Plus 1.14.709.16/
Now I must stress that this is intended for developers and other people willing to help try and get this going (it has some major problems as highlighted in post 2 which I suggest you read)
To any users who are even slightly tempted to flash this onto your Sensation, it will brick your phone so don't even try it. If you do and it bricks your phone, do not come to me for sympathy because I will just laugh at you. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

The Problem,
Since JellyBean releases HTC have added extra protection around their RUU's making the rom.zip file still getable from the RUU but with what bender_007 says are extra bytes - this means that any attempt to extract the system.img gives a CRC error.
This is not particuarly my area of expertise so I hope those with more knowledge/ideas will come and discuss this

Hey! I'm not a dev or something but when you're searching for testers, I will offer my help!

There is nothing to test at the moment, no system.img means no ROM

Dear god, the holy grail may be within this amazing dev community's grasp. Sucks that its for the S4 though, isn't S3 what is most portable to the Sensation?

If you show me how to extract the zip from the RUU, i can discover the password!!!. I can try!!
OK I FIND HOW, I WILL TRY I'm Downloading it.

That would be awesome...

Nice of you but there is no password. The zip file is (on purpose) crippled.

Its not password protected, its proprietary HTC protection
Edit: bender_007 was quicker

All we can do is hope that team venom,shnizlon,elegancia and all others that are developing start workin on this

I hate HTC attitude, they said that they won't release JB for old devices and lock the ROM files. I wish you guys the best of luck solving it and giving us, once again, the best ROM available.

Again you are TROLLING...

nah..you can't flash it , but you can try to. The app has too some conditions on flashing .
We can override the conditions, someone would flash it and then dump the image.
Does this sound reasonable enough ?

[Q] Android 4.0 ROM for HTC Sensation?

Hey devs,
Found a few threads from the HTC Desire department where they are talking about Android 4.0 and making a 4.0 ROM for the Desire...
Is that also possible with our Sensation? I mean, we have better processor, GPU, screen etc. Haven't found anything about this in the Sensation department yet.
Thought I'd ask
Greetings!
Why can't you report stuff on the XDA app yet?

need some info here..you are 1.17.111 and i assume you are SOFF (deduced this by reading your post)...
the only misssing this is cid...if you are supercid thats good...otherwise
get the corresponding 3.32 firmware for your cid...or you can simply supercid as you are soff "fastboot oem writecid 11111111"

OTA stands for O.ver T.he A.ir and yes, it does have to do with software. Sometimes when you have a smartphone, like a Sensation there are updates to your phone which consists of installing software via the OTA.
Yes I know ... It was the excitement ... And the fact that I was driving xD

theres a beta test program called HTC elevate which is a closed group of 300 or so people, they registered their phones and got the OTA update that way, so its not a leaked RUU, its a final beta rom update before the main public ota release but you can bet its gonna be pretty much like this for final release..

How to hard reset an S3 One S when you flashed the wrong recovery.

Someone asked me this question, and i feel the answer i provided might help us S3 users out there.
HI..I guess I have the same problem HTC one s 1.7Ghz, now I can't hard reset any recovery. please if u find a way to fixit
yeah.. you cant. Unless you can find someone to give you a recovery from a stock S3. I dont have one either... but there is another way to hard reset it.
I assume you have already unlocked the bootloader via HTC Dev. Simply relock it, then unlock it again. This will hard reset your phone without the need for recovery.
The hard reset feature within the phone cannot be used because we no longer have the stock recovery and the S4 recovery we "accidentally" flashed in wont work.
Keep our fingers crossed someone will create a recovery that is usable by us S3 users!
You can also run a ruu and extract the recovery.img from the temp folder.

Yep hansthegeek is right. As long as you have a locked/relocked bootloader, the ruu will run fine, even with a messed up recovery (speaking from experience )

Please stop posting. You are giving nothing but bad advice to the OP. He's in the correct forum, he needs to head to the 2 development selections.
OP, you are good to flash any ROM you want FROM THIS FORUM ONLY. Granted you have custom recovery. Hboot 1.09 will allow you to flash anything with no restrictions. So don't worry about fastboot or any boot.img. if you need any help with anything just ask in here and we'll give you proper advice. :thumbup:

It's not that my information that was useless. It was that the OP's Info was useless. He did not give me any information about his previous searches or attempts to find a sense rom for his phone. So I provided him with clearly obvious information to his question with the limited knowledge I know about this thread, assuming that there were no sense rom but not bothering to look yet again assuming that the OP had already looked and had no success. Now, if you're going to troll and carry on and not politely excuse me for being mistaken then you can leave this thread. Good day.

Yep. Hboot 1.14 and higher need fastboot or s-off to flash any image files. (Splash screens, kernels, recovery imgs)
So you having hboot 1.09 are home free. Find a ROM you're interested in, download onto phone. Wipe everything in twrp and flash the zip file and gapps in need be. Profit bro

If you don't know the device, you shouldn't be giving advice for it, leave it to the guys who know what they're talking about for this device.
By the way, the OP's information wasn't useless. He correctly identified his device, he gave his hboot version, and simply asked where to find ROMs for it.
